We received our Russian visas last Friday and can now say with certainty that we are living to Perm this Friday January 25th. We our route is Phoenix - Charlotte - Frankfurt - Moscow then Perm. We leave at mid-day on Friday at noon and get to Perm mid-day Sunday ( which is really 12 hours earlier here). In any case, it is 20+ hours flying and the rest is transfers, customs and waiting around airports. I am sure Sunday afternoon will be to catch-up on all the missed sleep and more important, get ready for our big meeting the following morning with the Ministry of Education ( they run their orphanages ) and our adoption representative in Perm...who am dying to meet. I hear he is wonderful!
